Bon Tool 14-884 Gravity Pig Tail Pin 2 Inches

Product Description

The BON TOOL 14-884 is a gravity pig tail pin designed to secure insert pins in scaffolding assemblies. Measuring 2 inches in length, this fastening pin uses gravity to hold the insert pin in place, preventing accidental disengagement during scaffold use. It is a standard component in tubular scaffold systems and is typically installed by scaffold erectors and general contractors during frame assembly and dismantling. Its simple, tool-free engagement makes it a reliable choice for maintaining scaffold pin retention on the job site.

This pin is used in residential and commercial construction environments wherever tubular or frame-style scaffolding is assembled. It fits into standard scaffold frame sockets to lock the insert pin and prevent it from backing out under load or vibration. Scaffold crews working on masonry, plastering, painting, and general construction tasks rely on this type of gravity-actuated pin to maintain safe, stable scaffold structures.

Key Features

• Gravity-actuated design holds insert pin in place without tools or additional hardware
• 2-inch tail pin length fits standard scaffold fastening applications
• Prevents insert pin disengagement during scaffold use
• Compatible with tubular and frame-style scaffolding systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or accessory pin for standard tubular scaffold frame systems requiring gravity pig tail pin fasteners.

Installation Notes

Scaffold pins should be installed and inspected by qualified scaffold erectors following applicable OSHA scaffolding standards and site safety plans. Ensure the insert pin is fully seated in the scaffold frame socket before engaging the pig tail pin. Inspect the pin for bends, cracks, or deformation before each use and replace any damaged pins immediately. Never substitute a pig tail pin with improvised fasteners.
